opinions4u Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Perhaps Ossie could get super Mario Kempes to come out of retirement and give us a little bit more movement up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 No thank you, Rob Lee wasnt interested in latics previously why would he be now? Speed just say no. This appointment is a hard one. Unless ok with budget from day 1 cant see anyone making it work. Hill at Dale is asking for a million more on his budget to survive. Tends to push us in direction of Bunn, Butt etc. Think Gannon now more likely to be in Stockport job. What is the difference between Butt and Speed that you know of in management/coaching ability? As for Lee not being interested in a player meaning that he has no interest as a coach/manager, well I don't really know where to start on that one.

Lookers_Carl Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 Ardiles I just cannot take seriously. Butt - I wouldn't turn my nose up, but would he really be willing to manage on a budget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fleetwood Blue Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 No thank you, Rob Lee wasnt interested in latics previously why would he be now? Speed just say no. This appointment is a hard one. Unless ok with budget from day 1 cant see anyone making it work. Gary Speed and Rob Lee would have the connections needed between them to pull in some good young loan players from the greedy league, we have no money to splash out on transfers so i guess Gannon would just have to work with what he already has if he is appointed and i guess he would be considered to be doing a good job if we just survived. Butt would also have decent contacts with all of the ex Man Utd managers in control of big clubs but using the loan system well is the only realistic chance we have of gaining a top 6 place, look at Blackpool they got out of league 1 by using about 5 of there own players and once again last week it was loan players that did the job at Forest.

leeslover Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I'm just picturing Ardiles developing John Worthington in to the next Messi. I'd settle for the new Ardiles. If Butt wants to manage it would make sense IMO, the likes of Bruce and the Guvnor started at small clubs and got rapidly promoted above their ability due to the big name player factor. In a total aside I saw Ricky Villa in a porno once, and I will go to my grave maintaining it was him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 (edited) My Dad was having a chat with a former Latics player in his local who is now part of the coaching team at a nearby club and he said Gannon has definately applied and he hopes he gets it so he can come across as part of the coaching team (doesn't mean that Gannon won't be off to Stockport if they sort themselves out though). I'm not naming any names but some of you ought to be able to guess. Edited May 16, 2010 by rudemedic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think Latics is a perfect fit for Gannon as manager and, if he's given the choice, he'd be better off at BP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Sinnott Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I was speaking to a member of the Latics board (a few of you will know who), and the shortlist is down to five. Gannon, Bunn, Butt, Gray and, very surprisingly, Justin Edinburgh! They are hoping to appoint a new manager within the next two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukers1 Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Had a bet have we, that you can get a random name in the paper again? Complete bollocks! Well they havent asked Grey to leave which tends to lean to the fact that he will be on the shorlist. Or in another way- worth further consideration That Gray has made the short-list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but if he gets it there'll be uproar, that's why I'm prepared to wait and pay an extra £30 for my ST, we binned Penney, we binned Collett, Gray should have been right behind.
